n="justify">by Karolina Kluczewska - Moderator : prof. Bruno de Cordier, Conflict Research Group, Ghent University CERISE lecture - International Relations Office Ghent University - Russia Platform This presentation analyses how the war in Ukraine affects Central Asia, a region that is historically, politically and economically tied to Russia. It explains different political reactions to the conflict, which emerged in this region. Moreover, relying on her research in Tajikistan during the first weeks of the war in Ukraine, Kluczewska sketches a variety of social perceptions of this conflict, including: pro-Ukrainian and pro-Western stances; unconditional support for the Russian government’s actions; and a compassionate attitude towards Ukrainian refugees, combined with a belief that this war was inevitable. About the speaker : Karolina Kluczewska is a postdoctoral researcher at the Ghent Institute for International and European Studies (GIES) at Ghent University, and an associate researcher at the Institute of Middle East, Central Asia and Caucasus Studies at the University of St Andrews (United Kingdom).
